    .@JustinTrudeau drops umbrella (& the mic): “As we sit here in the rain, thinking how uncomfortable we must be these minutes as our suits get wet, and our hair gets wet...it’s all the more fitting that we remember on that day in Dieppe the rain wasn’t rain, it was bullets.”

    A 55-year-old man wearing “MAGA for Mamdani” gear said he voted for Trump twice but now he’s “making a switch” and voting for Mamdani. “This’ll be the first time I'm voting for a Democrat,” he said. “I like his policies.”

    “When ⁦@PeteButtigieg⁩ swore to do whatever he could to ensure the election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, that ‘whatever’ turned out to include ‘speak softly and carry a sling blade.’”

    Buttigieg: "I watched @JDVance present himself as suddenly...very concerned about honesty. He's running w/Trump, [who] just gave a press conference where..he told 160 lies. That frankly is impressive in terms of being able to physically do that. It's like the Olympics of lying"

    Goddamn. @PeteButtigieg does not miss. As powerful in a small room as he is in a big state.

    Just watched @JoeBiden’s interview- he took the tough q’s, addressed issue directly & respectfully. If the GOP wants to make this an issue, they’ll have to reckon with the fact that their President hasn’t answered any tough qs about the scores of assault allegations against him.

    Quiet part out loud: "We are not in a position to win the White House. But we do have a real opportunity to win something historic. We could deny Kamala Harris the state of MI. And the polls show that most likely Harris cannot win the election without MI."
    WOW! At an event before introducing @DrJillStein, Kshama Sawant ADMITS that Stein can’t win and is only in the race to prevent Kamala Harris from winning. Make sure everyone sees this!

    WOW. Jill Stein doesn't know how many members of the House there are in Congress. 600?!?! Just the latest sign she's a deeply unserious candidate only there to help Trump win.

    .@PeteButtigieg’s decision to get out of the race was his and his alone.
    Sen. Bernie Sanders on Super Tuesday results: "One of the things I was kind of not surprised by was the power of the establishment to force Amy Klobuchar, who had worked so hard, Pete Buttigieg who had really worked extremely hard as well out of the race." abcn.ws/2W1ezbr

    This man is a generational communicator. I would not want to face off against him on any debate stage.
    What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

    .@PeteButtigieg heard that @realDonaldTrump mentioned him tonight: “Lately, he’s been trying to get my attention. Poor guy. President of the United States, trying to get the attention of a 30-something year old mayor from Indiana, that tells you something. Poor fella.”

    .@PeteButtigieg on Trump's debunked claim that he flew on a helicopter w/Willie Brown: "You can just tell that he's lost his step. He's getting mushier, fuzzier, more confused...It does raise some real concerns about what's happened to Trump...is this a symptom of something?"

    .@PeteButtigieg: "If we can get clean water to a base in Afghanistan, we should be able to get clean water to Flint, Michigan."
